Our nation promotes culture of violence

I’ll tell you why. Because everything in this country is modeled around violence.

Kids are raised on movies, music and video games about killing. They are taught and told everywhere they look that if they have a problem, just grab a gun and solve it.

How many games are there on the market where you can kill someone, rip their heads off, take them out like a sniper? How many songs are there about “rolling up on someone” and “offing them” or where “gangster rap” is glorified? How many movies and TV shows are there about killing or being killed and why is this America’s first form of entertainment anyway?

Everywhere they look.

How did this become normal and routine? Reynolds to the north, Thurston and Umpqua to the south. Enough is enough is enough.
